Barcelona, ​​players’ notes: a custard devoured by the Barcelona barrage

Real Betis hosted FC Barcelona at the Cartuja stadium in a match of the 15th day of Liga EA Sports. The Catalans ended up beating Pellegrini’s side 3-5 despite starting by conceding the first goal at La Cartuja … of the crash, work of Antoine. A hat-trick from Ferran Torres and another goal from Roony turned things around before the break, taking advantage of the defensive weakness of the Greens and Whites. Lamine would make it 1-5 thanks to a controversial penalty after the break. The locals only managed to reduce the gap in the final stretch thanks to goals from Diego Llorente and Cucho, from maximum penalties.

That’s how they played

ALVARO VALLES

WAITING

Not very intuitive and slow to react to Barça’s cyclone during the first half. A good hand against Lamine and let’s stop counting.

RUIBAL

WAITING

Far from his best level. He lost all the duels on his side. Without defensive or offensive solutions.

BARTRA

WAITING

One of the worst games we can remember for Betis. Ferran devoured it. They gave him a VAR penalty which was not converted by Lamine.

NATANE

WAITING

Infected by the entire team’s general lack of defensive control. Late and bad in the cuts. He broke the offside position to set up Roony for his goal.

VALENTÍN GÓMEZ

WAITING

He will remember his first match against Barça as a terrible headache. Too alone in front of Lamine, Koundé and company on his flank.

MARC ROCA

WAITING

Lost in the area and without solutions to the pressure from Barça. He also didn’t know how to help an overwhelmed defensive line.

ALTIMIRA

WAITING

After his goal and his good minutes in the derby, he was completely eclipsed against Barça. He did not take advantage of the property given to him by Pellegrini.

ANTHONY

APPROVED

He pushed to get to the game no matter what and scored the first goal, generating enthusiasm in the stands. Then it faded, although he never stopped trying.

FORNALS

WAITING

He was not in his optimal version, which the team criticized him too much for. When it doesn’t really appear, Betis takes a step back in its football.

ABDE

GOOD

He always played for his band. Until the end. The best on the team. He was behind Betic’s first goal and also caused the penalty for the third.

CUCHO HERNANDEZ

APPROVED

Barça’s defense made it difficult for them. Despite everything, and with little space, he looked for his opportunities and scored from eleven meters.

DEOSSA

APPROVED

He brought dynamism and improved his starting teammates in midfield.

LLORENTE

GOOD

It helped reduce the bleeding in the back and also scored. Excellent news. The team is going to need it.

PABLO GARCIA

APPROVED

He came out to bite in front and pushed Barça into his area. They refused a goal.

FIRPO JUNIOR

WAITING

He lasted 20 minutes on the pitch. Hurt.

RICARDO RODRIGUEZ

WITHOUT RESERVE

The Swiss barely had time. Minutes due to Junior’s injury.

PELLEGRINI

WAITING

He did not interpret the game well. His approach sold the team too early in the face of Barça’s deadly counter-attacks.
